OK, I worked out the 405 was because I was using the wrong endpoint, doh >_<
However I now get (401)Unauthorized as a result of "Failure authenticating with DIGEST 'MapPoint'@renderv3.staging.mappoint.net:80". I understand this can happen if you're not using CommonsHTTPSender, however I am. I am setting up authentication params like so : // Set username and password on the resulting renderService ((RenderServiceSoapStub)renderService).setUsername(userID); ((RenderServiceSoapStub)renderService).setPassword(password); which appears to be the standard way all the examples do it. Error in full : About to call renderService.getMap - Discarding unexpected response: HTTP/1.1 100 Continue - digest authentication scheme selected - Discarding unexpected response: HTTP/1.1 100 Continue - Failure authenticating with DIGEST 'MapPoint'@renderv3.staging.mappoint.net:80 AxisFault faultCode: {http://xml.apache.org/axis/}HTTP faultSubcode: faultString: (401)Unauthorized faultActor: faultNode: faultDetail: {}:return code: 401 {http://xml.apache.org/axis/}HttpErrorCode:401 (401)Unauthorized at org.apache.axis.transport.http.CommonsHTTPSender.invoke(CommonsHTTPSender.java:218) at org.apache.axis.strategies.InvocationStrategy.visit(InvocationStrategy.java:32) at org.apache.axis.SimpleChain.doVisiting(SimpleChain.java:118) at org.apache.axis.SimpleChain.invoke(SimpleChain.java:83) at org.apache.axis.client.AxisClient.invoke(AxisClient.java:165) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invokeEngine(Call.java:2784) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invoke(Call.java:2767) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invoke(Call.java:2443) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invoke(Call.java:2366) at org.apache.axis.client.Call.invoke(Call.java:1812) at net.mappoint.s.mappoint_30.RenderServiceSoapStub.getMap(RenderServiceSoapStub.java:1400) at jSimpleMapper.mappointDotNetClient.<init>(mappointDotNetClient.java:138) at jSimpleMapper.MapperApplet.start(MapperApplet.java:2375) at sun.applet.AppletPanel.run(Unknown Source) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) Again any pointers would be much appreciated, thanks. ___________________________________________________________ To help you stay safe and secure online, we've developed the all new Yahoo!
